How do we make a good game of The Thing?

You don't, it doesn't need one.

The Thing '02 was crap btw

Take it back

I'm thinking it'd have to be a multiplayer RPing game of some sort, but it'd be difficult to get people together who take it seriously. Maybe it could take some inspiration from card games like secret hitler?

You would know who "The Thing" was the second time round or if you had read spoilers, though Unless they made it so that the person who was infected was random every time and you always had the option to shoot, thus ensuring a moment of "Oh god, what have I done" when you kill an innocent
